For instance, Yoshi’s Wooly World, a super-cute game where you jump a little dinosaur through handcrafted levels made of paper and yarn, and Super Mario Odyssey, which has you whizzing about a surreal cartoon galaxy in a spaceship shaped like a top hat, landing on different planets and jumping on the heads of the weird creatures you find there.įor non-Nintendo options, the classic is Minecraft, a long-running and enormously popular game where you explore a world made of blocks and build your own creations from them – but be prepared for your kids to leave you in the dust with their knowledge and enthusiasm for the game. For parents with a bit of gaming experience, most Nintendo games allow your child to join in with you, using a second controller, while you remain in charge of the game. Clubhouse Games has fun virtual versions of many classic family and board games from Connect 4 to bowling to chess. The zany 1-2-Switch gets two players up and moving with the Switch controllers in hand, pretending to milk cows, strut down a runway or fight with swords. Mario Party is like a virtual board game where you compete to reach the end and collect stars, with plenty of devious options for sabotaging each other. A classic beginner’s choice is Mario Kart 8, an easy-to-navigate racing game that’s brilliantly competitive and will have you jostling each other on the sofa. Photograph: Nintendo What games are good for families and people of all ages to play together?įor families, I recommend Nintendo because it’s the Pixar of the video game world, putting out approachable, characterful games that are always age-appropriate and high-quality. You can get a mini SNES, NES or Mega Drive on the cheap on eBay and play really great games you might remember from the 90s. Tens of millions of people will be enjoying games on older consoles for years to come. There’s no reason to have the absolute latest thing. The Xbox models will start at £250 and go up to £500.

The aforementioned new consoles – the PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X – are likely to be very expensive. Xbox and Apple offer good value, Netflix-style monthly subscriptions (from £5 to £10) that give you access to hundreds of games on an Xbox or iPhone/iPad. Nintendo’s latest, the Switch, is a bit more expensive at £280, but you can play it at home, like a PlayStation, or out and about, like a Game Boy. A PlayStation 4 or Xbox One will cost you £200 to £250, and you can pick up most of the greatest games of the past five years for £10 to £20 – or less. New versions of the PlayStation and Xbox consoles are arriving this year, which means the current ones are cheaper than ever, as are the games.

The simplest and easiest way to play as a family or on your home TV is by using a games console: a PlayStation, Xbox or Nintendo Switch.
You can play games on PCs, laptops or Macs too, but it’s a little more complicated. If you have a relatively recent smartphone or tablet, you can download plenty of amazing games to play solo from the App Store/Google Play – such as Monument Valley, a puzzle game in which you guide a little girl through fascinatingly beautiful Escher-esque buildings.

(That last one is called Coffee Talk and it’s well worth checking out.) There is really something for everyone, so here is how to get started.

There are whole worlds to be discovered in gaming: you can garden, ride dragons, go deep-sea diving, hunt ghosts, have a wild romance or even work as a barista in a town full of vampires.
